I design websites and blogs for a living. If you would like a blog or website designed by someone who understands Primal, see my web page.

Primal Blueprint Explorer My blog for people who are not into the Grok thing. Since starting the blog, I have moved close to being Archevore instead of Primal. But Mark's Daily Apple is still the best source of information about living an ancestral lifestyle.

Thanks! There is still some things that I need to work on- tightening up nutrition, being outside in the sunlight more, getting consistent amounts of sleep, and going out and having fun just to have fun. But I feel like it is going pretty well so far!

Picking this back up again to keep myself accountable. Doing john romaniello's fat loss forever program and I know I'll stick with it more if I keep declaring my day.
Day 2: fast day
Include water with a couple of ounces of pure cranberry juice thoughout the day.
Workout: Run 5mi, trx and jumprope workout

Last month I did a 60hr fast to kind of test my mind and see how it affected my body,etc. (I have been periodically doing longer and longer fasts once a month while following a usual routine of only eating one large dinner on all of the other days). Right now I'm going for a 4 day or 96 hour fast. There is a slight possibility that I'll increase it to a 5 day fast but I feel like after 4 days I'll have met and overcome the mental challenge. Overall though I have started these fasting experiments to regain control of my addiction to food (especially sugar- chocolate) and since then I no longer feel a reward/ loss due to food and feel like I have a much better understanding and control of it. I think once I make it through this challenge I will go to a plan of one large meal each night (always dependent on what is actually going on in life) and a 48hr fast once (possibly twice) per month.
Currently I'm just about 24hrs in and going pretty strong (the "stomach pains" do go away after practicing intermittent fasting for a while!). I plan on tracking my progress and also sharing my experiences with a "longer" all water fast (I do take supplements as well- vitamin D, fish oil, magnesium, cinnamon, and probiotics- the cinnamon I have found really helps ward off any blood sugar issues.)
